Girls State Tournament to Hendersonville?

[timbdp]

hendersonville has sent a bid to get the girls soccer state tournament to be played at drakes creek park

Let's hope that doesn't happen. Talk about a club tournament atmosphere......at least Mike Rose in Memphis has the stadium. Would Murfreesboro not be able to host?

I don't know how recent that picture is, but the fields look to be in better condition than the Memphis regular fields did... Although, it is hard to match up with the finals stadium field in Mike Rose.

Getting in and out of the park is a nightmare. There are other fields (softball,baseball) one way in. The fields may all be brown by then with the brumuda grass. Hope it is not there.

AAA middle tennessee teams are going to dominate next year so you might has well move to middle tennessee

I personally like it in middle Tennessee. It makes it more convenient for east and west (going to Memphis didn't allow for many fans from Knoxville to come) and it is far enough that it makes you feel like you are going "somewhere".

Word is just in that the tournament will stay in Chattanooga. Baylor will take over Finley's slot as a quarterfinal/semifinal site, and the finals will be at GPS.

That is a terrific solution and GPS has the best site in the area imo.

I like getting away from Finely, but have said all along and still contend that no team should have the advantage of playing the State Tournament on their home field. There are too many naunces with every soccer field that the home team knows better than anyone else. The State Tournament should be a neutral site for eveyone.
